Auburn mourns her death
Auburn University and the State of Alabama continue
mourning the death of Gov. Lurleen B. Wallace today.
The 41-year-old governor, who died Tuesday morning
after a two year battle with cancer, was buried yesterday
in Montgomery's Greenwood Cemetery after services in
St. James' Methodist Church.
Albert Brewer, Governor Wallace's successor, has pro­claimed
a period of mourning until sunrise Monday.
Governor Wallace, Alabama's 46th governor and the
first woman to hold the state's highest office, was chair­man
of the Auburn Board of Trustees.
Like most governors, she rarely attended board meet­ings,
but her interest in education was evidenced by her
administration's efforts to improve Alabama education.
Pres. Harry M. Philpott praised the late governor for
her contributions to education. "Her support of this ins­titution
and of all phases of education in Alabama will
long be remembered," he said Tuesday.
Auburn, as other state schools, dismissed classes
yesterday for the governor's funeral.
Jimmy Bryan, president-elect of the Student Body, said
a sympathy telegram was sent to the Wallaces on behalf
of Auburn students. Senator-at-large Rob Hicks joined
administrators representing Auburn at the funeral.
Governor Wallace's last official appearance was made
Dec. 7, 1967 at the organizational meeting of the Alabama
Education Study Commission which President Philpott
chaired.
Philpott recalls, "She expressed her hopes for a major
advance in all educational programs and her concern for
meeting the needs of the young people of Alabama."
Governor Wallace, who succeeded her husband George
C. Wallace as governor, received over 60 per cent of the
vote in the November, 1966 election. It was the largest
number of votes ever given a gubernatorial candidate in
Alabama.
She was inaugurated Jan. 16, 1967, and visited Auburn
twice before a recurrence of cancer in July.
Shortly after her inauguration, Mrs. Wallace came to
Auburn and made her first speech as governor. Speaking

Summary briefs due Tuesday
in Montgomery campus law suit
By DAVID HOUSEL
A three-judge F e d e r al
Dourt will receive summary
briefs Tuesday arguing
whether or not Auburn
should be allowed to esta­blish
a four year branch in
Montgomery.
The three judges, Frank M.
Johnson, Virgil Pittman and
Walter P. Gewin, ordered the
briefs which will summarize
each side's strong points
submitted after hearing pre­liminary
testimony May 2.
The Alabama State Teachers
Association (ASTA) is chal­lenging
the Auburn branch
saying it would perpetuate
segregation by preventing
white students from attending
Alabama State College, a pre­dominately
Negro four year
school already in the capital
city.
ROBERT P. STRONG, HIGH
school relations director,
said his office had been in
contact with every Negro
school which had requested
information about enrolling
procedures both on the main
campus and the branch unit.
Strong said visits concern­ing
the Montgomery branch

Council interpretation of
rush drinking rules. The
Committee on Fraternities
handed down the interpre­tation.
The original rule, which
was subject to varying in­terpretations
for each vio­lation,
reads, "An organi­zation
is not permitted to
budget, purchase or provide
alcoholic beverages under
any conditions." This rule
applies to any organization
chartered by the Board of
Student Organizations includ­ing
fraternities.
The rule as it will be ap­plied
to future violations
reads, "During the period of
formal pre-school rush, no
fraternity or friend of a
fraternity may serve or per­mit
to be served any alco­holic
beverage to a rushee.
Further, that a rushee is not
permitted to drink alcoholic
beverages during a rush func­tion."
Although the rule interpre­tation
applies only to rush­ees,
IFC President Joe
Busta says that "fraternity
men won't drink during rush
periods since rushees can't."
Proposed penaltiesi. for
violations of the rule, which
was unanimously endorsed by
the IFC Presidents Comr.us-sion
Monday, will be voted on
in Tuesday night's IFC meet­ing.

At graduation
Moorer to speak
By DONNA RENFROE
More than 1,000 grad­uates
are expected to re­ceive
degrees at commence­ment
exercises June 3 in
Cliff Hare Stadium, accord­ing
to the R e g i s t r a r 's
Office.
Admiral Thomas H. Moorer,
U.S. Chief of Naval opera­tions,
will speak at the exer­cises.
A joint ROTC commission­ing
at Langdon Hall will be
held at 10 a.m. and the Pre­sident's
Reception will be
from 11-1 p.m. in the Union
Ballroom. The reception will
be followed by the President's
Luncheon at 1:15 p.m. Grad­uation
exercises will begin
at 4 p.m. The Board of
Trustees will meet at 9 that
morning.
ADMIRAL MOORER, WHO
also serves as a member of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff and
as Principal Naval Adviser
Dennis Haynes to lead
7968-69 cheerleaders-to
the President and Secretary
of the Navy, made his first
address here as a featured
speaker during the 1967 Au­burn
Conference on Inter­national
Affairs.
A native of Alabama, Ad­miral
Moorer received his
schooling in Montgomery. He
later attended theUJS. Naval
Academy and was graduated
in 1933.
Admiral Moorer became the
18th Chief of Naval Opera­tions
in 1967. Prior to his
present appointment he served
as Commander-in-Chief of the
Atlantic Command and U.S.
Atlantic Fleet and NATO's

state that a rushee found to
have been drinking at a rush
function will be dropped from
rush and any fraternity caught
serving alcohol to a rushee
will be fined 850 for each
rushee involved.
In addition, a rule change
which would not allow a
rushee who violates this rule
to pledge any fraternity for
one quarter will be consider­ed.
Under the present system
a rushee who violated a rush
rule could not pledge for
six weeks.
"Our goal of establishing
a comprehensive interpre­tation
of the rush drinking
rule has been reached," Bus-,
ta said Tuesday. "This new
ruling will be beneficial in
that it will improve the atmos­phere
of rush by bringing
rushees and fraternity men
together without the need for
social drinking. Also, it will
save fraternity members a lot
of money," he added.

form of identification must

Tuition increased $20
starting next quarter
Students will have to reach a little deeper into their
pockets when paying summer quarter registration fees.
In-state and non-resident tuition is being increased
from $100 to $120 effective
when summer fees are due,
May 23. 24 and 27.
For students living inAla-bama,
it will cost $120 to re­gister,
while students living
in Georgia, for example, will
have to pay $240 instead of
$200 as in recent years.
THE REGISTRATION FEE
for part-time students has
been increased from $15 to
$17.50.
The increased changes were
approved by the Board of
Trustees in October, 1966, but
did not come into effect until
now.
The increased fee will
cause a change in distribution
of the student activi>y fee.
Prior to the increase, the
student activity fee of $8.50
included a $2 charge on the
Union Building debt retirement
and a 25 cent contingency
fund deduction for damages
by students to University
property.
THE REMAINING $6.25,
was divided among 17 student
activities with intercollegiate
athletics receiving 30.25 per
cent.
Under the new system, ath­letics
will get $4 from the $20
increase and will not get a
share of the $6.25 student
activity fee after the contin­u

be open from 8:30-4:30.
"I feel that the 1968
Glomerata will be more contro­versial
than any in the past,"
Editor David Smith said. "It's
not a yearbook to put on the
shelf and forget. It tells the
story of Auburn, not idealisti-cally,
but like it happened-including
both the good and
the bad."
SMITH ALSO SAID THAT
this year's Glomerata will be
"bigger, more unified and
more useful."
Some of the improvements
over the previous yearbooks
listed by Smith include the
addition of a student index,
more attention to the schools
and what they have to offej
academically, more extensive
coverage of sports, a more-unified
honoraries section, an
improved Greek section, more
color pictures and greater use
of illustrations.
Yearbooks are free for those
who have been in school three

The American university premiere of "Stephen D"
will be held here Monday. The final production of the

the Little Theatre on College Street. Curtain is at 8:15
p.m.
"Stephen D," directed by
Dr. Kenneth Campbell, is

James Joyce, "Portrait of
the Artist as a Young Man,"
and "Stephen Hero." The play
traces the significant events

If you see a Viet Cong, a Mexican bandit or some un­known

Such grotesques are only a part of the Ugliest Man
On Campus (UMOC) festivities. This year, for the first
time, female lovelies as well as male uglies will parti­cipate.
The 17th annual UMOC contest, sponsored by Alpha

raising of funds for campus projects which will benefit
students.
A one cent donation on May 14-18 will register one
vote for your favorite candidate. Jars with the candi­dates,
pictures attached will be placed in the Union
Building to facilitate collection. The candidate accumu­lating
the most votes as either the Ugliest or the Beauty
will be declared the victor in his specialty.

sented to the candidates' sponsoring organizations.
Campus fraternities and sororities sponsor the compe­titors,
who are actually involved in a popularity contest,
according to Dan Harris of A Phi O. Last year $750 was
netted by bidders for the title. This was considerably
less than the almost S3,000 raised in 1966.
Auburn students have served themselves in contri­buting
to the contest. Although about five per cent of the
money is spent for such causes as the Boy Scout
Camporee at Ft. Benning, the majority of the funds is
used on campus. Proceeds from past contests have been
applied to the purchase of the fountain in Ross Square,
a color television and display case fa the Union Build­ing,
the Auburn marker, campus trash receptacles,
stone benches and desk sets for the girls' dormitories.
War Eagle IV owes his new home to many who donated

Included in the UMOC festivities will be a dance in

provided by the "Morticians" from Gadsden. Each fra­ternity
or sorority will be allotted tickets to sell at
one dollar each and will add the total sold to its UMOC
receipts which will later be turned over to A Phi O.
Sponsors will be awarded a $150 gift certificate if
their candidate can either "out-ugly" or "out-pretty"
all other entries. Sororities will demonstrate their in­genuity
in support of the beauty entrant, while official
jurisdiction of UMOC will rest in the fraternities' hands.
Previously, sororities and not fraternities usually
served as sponsors. Last year's prize was limited to a
Honors Day cancelled
due to 'lack of interest'
By ROBERT REYNOLDS
Honors Day has been can­celled
due to a lack of in-terest,
according to Dr.
M. C. Huntley, dean of fac-ties.
The annual affair was
originated "to give public re­cognition
to students who have
earned distinction for acade­mic
excellence and other
achievements," Dr. Huntley
said.
According to Huntley, the
discontinuance was prompted
by the "pitiful lack of interest
and attendance on the part
of both the faculty and the
student body."
He also said many schools
within the University have
their own award nights, and
Honors Day only duplicated
their presentations.
INCLUDED IN THE
awards presented at past con­vocations
were the President's
Award, given to an outstand­ing
graduate in each of the
nine schools, and the Alger­non
Sydney Sullivan Award,
presented "in recognition of
heart, mind and conduct, as
evidenced by helpfulness to
others."
trophy for the group whose man came out on top. One
fraternity and sorority will each be awarded $150, which
may be spent as they wish at Herbert Music Company.
Unlisted prizes will also be presented by s e v e r a l mer­chants.
A Phi O has made some suggestions to the Greeks
on how to make the best of an ugly or lovely situation,
whichever the case may be. Possibilities include the
laundering of men's shirts by sororities for a nominal
fee. Sitting on street corners while clasping a can is
not an unorthodox vote-getting procedure for candidates.
Last year's winner, Otis Marshall, sold sandwiches in
Magnolia Dorms.
Tucker Fredrickson and Jimmy Sidle have also been
past UMOC winners.
"Usually the organization with the most novel idea
wins," commented Dan Harris.
Perhaps there is a beastly man on campus you think
would be a UMOC prospect. It's too late for nominations.
The deadline was May 6. Maybe next year?

Memories linger of Gov. Lurleen ft. Wallace's Auburn visits
The late Gov. Lurleen Burns Wallace visited the Au­burn
campus several times during her term as ex-officio
chairman of the Board of Trustees and Governor of the
Sftate of Alabama. Always she had a smile and friendly
greeting for her student constituents. Jana Howard, 1966-
67 Miss Auburn, presented Governor Wallace with a War
Eagle IV feather during her only Governor's Day celebra­tion
in April, 1967.
The second picture was taken when the Governor ar­rived
for that Governor's Day observance. Capt. J. B.
Sweeny, professor of Naval Science, escorts Governor
Wallace in a review of a military honor guard. Later she
reviewed Array, Air Force and Naval ROTC troops at Max
Morris Drill Field.
The third picture shows Mrs. Wallace waving an Auburn
pennant in one of the happier moments preceeding her
first speech as Alabama's chief executive.

Gov. Lurleen B. Wallace
When a winner loses against over­whelming
odds, there is sadness, but
the defeat really isn't counted as a
loss at all. Gov. Lurleen B. Wallace
was a winner and her last battle,
though she was struck down, was her
greatest victory. Her courage, faith and
fortitude throughout her two year bout
with cancer were inspiring to all who
observed from near and far.
Even those who disagreed strongly
with her husband's philosophy frankly
admired and liked her. She gave her­self
warmly to life and to the people
for whom she cared; her warmth was
invariably returned in full measure.
On each of her visits to Auburn, we
were impressed with her dignity and
the pleasure she took in others des­pite
the burden of her high office.
She seemed unawed by her position;
nevertheless, we were impressed by
her quickness to learn while in office.
In particular, her concern for the
mentally ill and retarded was shared
and admired here. Her passage of le­gislation
to improve and expand men­tal
health facilities in Alabama re­flects
her special concerns, her inde­pendence
as Governor and her admira­ble
determination to serve actively
and effectively during her term.
And, she did much more, in her own
winning way, that Alabamians will
long remember.
'Activism' redefined
The Plainsman has followed with
growing concern the sweep of student
unrest across U.S. college campuses.
While we are aware that these stu­dents
may have had some legitimate
gripes, we believe that we represent
the majority of college students in de­ploring
the unlawful conduct of stu­dents
at Columbia University and
wherever else similar incidents have
occurred. We believe that administra­tors
who tolerate violence and force­ful
occupation of campus buildings
are remiss in their duties; such action
should be met with swift stern re­action
against hoodlum techniques-by
administrators and responsible
students. A u n i v e r s i t y is not the
place for mob rule; no education-bad
or good-can take place in an atmos­phere
of chaos.
While we believe that every good
university should be stirred by stu­dent
"activism," apparently our de­finition
of the term is sharply at
variance with some others. Student
"activism" to us means lively stu­dent
participation in every aspect of
university life. Auburn students have,
in general, disappointed us with a
lack of active interest in the questions
which face American education today.
There have been, of course, some
notable exceptions here; several stu­dents
have participated, dissented
and expressed themselves articulate­ly
on Auburn University issues this
spring. But, we believe that they
have done so responsibly and with
respect for the opinions and interests
of others. In no instance have we
sensed violent disrespect for the law.
And, this is not to say that civil dis­obedience
is never warranted; we
merely believe that only the gravest
questions of student interest could
ever merit such action, and we have
not yet seen, heard or read of such
a serious question this spring-at
Columbia or anywhere else.
We believe that students have a
duty to raise questions about any­thing
related to their education with
which they are dissatisfied. Admin­istrators
have a duty to respond can­didly
to student queries. Each, how­ever,
owes the other simple courtesy,
if not respect. Conduct outside these
boundaries is inappropriate and ac­complishes
nothing.
Students have a responsibility to
seek solutions to problems patiently,
through the proper channels firsts-even
if it is difficult to be patient
as it sometimes is. If the proper
channels yield no meaningful results,
then legal, non-violent demonstrations
are in order. If there is a legal ques­tion
involved, students should rely
on the courts.
Constructive student power has a
place on the college campus. But,
disruptive, destructive student acti­vity
is inconsistent with the goals
and traditions of higher education.
People who venture outside the
boundaries of reason have no place
in an academic community.
Cooperation in subordinates
We will give credit where credit is
due. And, according to student leaders
who have met with Pres. Harry M.
Philpott since the contingency fund
incident, his candor has been most
satisfactory, even admirable. We are
pleased that a channel of communica­tion
appears to have cleared; we have
sensed the relaxation in several stu­dent
leaders who thought the admin­istration
was dodging the truth. They
see now that such was not the case.
A word to President Philpott's sub­ordinates
seems appropriate, however;
perhaps a lesson could be taken from
him. Student leaders can be amazing­ly
reasonable when treated frankly
and honestly. Duplicity benefits no
one.
One step doser. . .
A guaranteed income-we
can't afford it
By Brace Nichols
The push for a government-guaranteed
annual income apparently gained strength
this week. Rev. Ralph Abernathy of the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference and the Poor People's March told a
Monday rally, "We want an end to poverty, we want meaning­ful
jobs, and we want a guaranteed annual income." And, the
same day in Atlantic City.
N.J., 3,000 delegates at a
United Auto Workers meeting
were considering a resolution
for an amendment to the U.S.
Constitution that would es­tablish
an "economic bill of
rights." A guaranteed annual
income would be included in
the UAW amendment, which
had the blessings of UAW
Pres. Walter Reuther.
The potentialities connect­ed
with guaranteed annual
income are staggering-for
good and bad reasons.
On the promising side, the
imagination reaches out to
the possibility that at some
future :.time, the United
States and the world might
be able to guarantee a com­fortable
subsistence to every
citizen. Already, technology
has increased the product­ivity
of the factory worker
while reducing the length of
his work days. With continu­ously
improving technology
and increased factory effici­ency,
we can expect the fac­tory
worker's productivity to
increase still further. The
end result of these changes
could be that machines will
gradually replace men, taking
over all production and mak­ing
negligible demands on
men. Conceivably, farming
and management could also
be handled by machines. Man
might then find himself auto­matically
provided with every­thing
he needs and wants,
without any effort on his
part. Everyone could thus be
guaranteed the material goods
necessary and useful to life;
and at the same time, the
unpleasant economic strug­gle,
the fight for survival,
could be eliminated-along
with human poverty and mi­sery,
major causes of conflict
in the world today. With
machines taking care of the
basics-food, shelter and
transportation, man could
devote himself to the solu­tion
of larger problems.
But, there is danger in any
attempt to shortcut progress,
to borrow a phrase from the
favorite conservative mono­logue.
Enactment of a guaran­teed
annual income now would
amount to perpetuation and
expansion of a welfare sys­tem
which has proven unsatis­factory.
As most of the lead­ing
Presidential candidates
have pointed out, numerous
families have been living on
welfare for several genera­tions.
They haven't been
helped by it; and when gene­ration
after generation lives
at public expense, society
hasn't benefited either. Hand­ing
these people a guaranteed
annual income above the
poverty level won't get them
off the welfare rolls. We need
a welfare system which will
help people temporarily and
then will get them back to
work. We need producers, not
loafers. As Richard Nixon
said recently, "We must
make welfare payments a tem­porary
expedient, not a per­manent
way of life, something
to be escaped from, not to.
Our aim should be to restore
dignity, not to destroy dig­nity."
In addition to discouraging
initiative among welfare re­cipients,
a guaranteed annual
income would saddle the
majority with the burden of
providing enough money to
raise the impoverished out of
poverty. The likelihood is
that the nation might succeed
in raising individual families
out of poverty but might, in
the process, bankrupt itself.
And for what? Handing people
a free lunch permanently
doesn't get them back to
work. And until we reach a
much higher level of techno­logy,
we can't expect to pro­vide
well for non-producers-and
maybe even not then.
A permanent comfortable
existence for everyone guar­anteed
free of charge by
government looks pretty
good in fantasies of the fu­ture;
but, as for the present,
we can't afford it.
Social change...
Bigotry, education
and Southern students
By Joe Lehman
The air was fresh but unusually cool for
a May night in Auburn. As we emerged from
the theater I shivered slightly, partly from the first contact
with the chilling coolness and partly from the impact of the
show.
Later, as I walked slowly back to that cubbyhole in the
basement of Langdon Hall
commonly called the Plains­man
office I thought of the
show. "In the Heat of the
Night," starring Rod Steiger
and Sidney Poitier, depicts
the narrow-minded, prejudiced
way of life typical of many
small towns, especially small
Southern towns.
I shivered again as I
crossed Ross square. This
time, however, I shivered
not from the chill of the night
but from a subtle haunting
fear, a fear which grew as I
realized how closely Alabama
communities compared to
Sparta, Mississippi, the set­ting
for the show. But the
people-that's what really
frightened me-the people of
Sparta and their bigoted at­titudes,
the people who in
some ways are comparable
to many Auburn students who
possess the same prejudices.
Racism was rampant in
Sparta. A deeply ingrained
sense of white supremacy
was evidenced in the atti­tudes
of everyone who came
in contact with Virgil Tibbs,
the Negro homocide detective
from Philadelphia, Pa. por-
'trayed by Poitier. The hatred
for Negroes, the feeling that
they are second-rate human
beings was shown by such
seemingly insignificant things
as Tibbs being called "boy"
instead of "Mr. Tibbs" and
the fact that Tibbs could not
find accommodations in
Sparta.
Racism, the ugly curse of
Southern history dating back
to the beginnings of slavery.
is also a very real force in
Auburn, just as it was in the
show. *
But this is not to condemn
all the citizens of Sparta or'
all the students of Auburn.
A few Spartans, such as the
mayor, were tolerant of
capable Negroes and others,
such as Police Chief Gil-lespe,
learned to accept
Negroes as human beings,
subject to the same frailities
and shortcomings as whites
but also capable of the same
intellectual and professional
achievement as the white
man.
In comparison, some Au­burn
students are tolerant of
Negroes and a few have ac­cepted
Negroes for what they
are, members of human
society.
However, many Auburn stu­dents
are defacto white su­premacists
because of hav­ing
been raised in the segre-gationalist
environment of
Alabama, a Southern state
which readily remembers the
stigma of slavery placed on
the Negro by history.
That a resolution calling
fa the enrollment of more
Negro students at Auburn
passed the Student Senate is
a matter of circumstance.
Had the senators who were
absent been present the re­solution
would, in all likeli­hood,
have failed.

In memoriam. . .
Lurleen Burns Wallace-a
lady of courage
By David Housel
The bright sun rays bounced over the
white-domed state capitol building that
brisk January morning as Alabamians from every conceivable
background gathered at Goat Hill to witness a unique event
in Alabama history.
Loud cheers arose from the thousands of citizens gathered
there as a black limousine
slowed to a stop and a smil­ing
lady wearing a trim black
hat and suit emerged, waving
to the crowd.
Flash bulbs snapped as
state troopers escorted Lur­leen
B. Wallace to the re­viewing
platform where she
would stand for more than
four hours observing the
largest parade in Alabama
history.
She had run as a stand-in
for her husband, the contro­versial
George C. Wallace.
She did not try to hide their
plans for her administration.
She promised to "Let George
do it" and she had been
elected by the largest vote
ever given a gubernatorial
candidate/and George "would
do it," but politics would
have to wait. This was Lur-leen's
day.
The new governor was a_
wife and mother, and Alabama
could see her concern as
she lifted her youngest
daughter, five-year old Janie
Lee, to her side. As the
little girl smiled and waved
intermittently to the passing
parade, it seemed inevitable
that her mother's charm would
revolutionize the governor's
role in Alabama the next
four years.
The thousands cheered
after Mrs. Wallace's calm,
sincere voice repeated the
oath of office and she be­came
Alabama's first woman
governor. She promised to
continue her husband's pro­grams
and look at legis­lation
through the eyes of a
wife and mother as well as
governor.
The sons of American
mothers were dying in Viet­nam,
.and Mrs. Wallace can­celled
the traditional in­augural
ball in honor of those
fighting men. Her inaugural
stand was bannered with
"Alabama Stands Up in Honor
of Our Forces in Vietnam.''
As Lurleen's supporters
filed away from the inaugural
area leaving the capitol
grounds strewn with paper
and Wallace banners, the new
governor retired to review
the day's events with her
family and close friends.
History will duly record
her legislative record which
was highlighted by a mas­sive
state program upgrading
facilities for the mentally
ill, but the history books will
miss her most significant
contribution to Alabama. That
contribution was courage.
To Alabama and everyone
who knew her, Lurleen's
fight against cancer was a
synonym for courage. Even
after learning of a recurrence
of the dreaded disease, the
lady, who epitomized Southern
hospitality and charm, con­tinued
to perform her official
duties with a smile. She
never faltered, maintaining
the same sincerity she had
displayed through the gruel­ing
climb from a ten-cent-store
clerk to the governor's
office.
As governor she earned
the respect of everyone.
Even her husband's political
enemies were forced to ad­mire
her stamina and courage
in face of the unbeatable
foe, cancer.
As the sun rose on May 7,
1968, 15 months and 21 days
after she took the oath of
office, flags dropped to half
staff. Lurleen Wallace had
lost her most important race,
but all of Alabama could be
inspired by the courage she
portrayed in that last fight.
socially acceptable filled
the senate meeting with
tension. Although most of
the senators who opposed
the resolution expounded
such trite arguments as
"Auburn students are not
prepared to accept Negroes"
and "this resolution is not
representative of what the
average student wants" their
underlying motives were
clear. As one senator re­marked
after the meeting,
"I don't want any damn nig­gers
in Auburn."
This revulsion felt by
many Auburn students to­ward
the Negro has risen
chiefly from the students'
Southern environment and
can eventually be overcome
through education.
The Southern social order
is changing. As Mr. Endicott,
the wealthiest and thereby
the most influential citizen
of Sparta, indicated when he
remarked after exchanging
backhanded slaps with Tibbs,
"At one time I could have
had you shot for that."
Today not even an Endi­cott
can treat the Negro like
an animal-and neither can a
public university or the racist
feelings of its students keep
the Negro subserviant by de­priving
them of a quality
education.
White supremacy in an
academic atmosphere cannot
be justified especially in
light of the need for under­standing
between the races-an
understanding which can
be gained only through edu­cation.
When the hatred of
racism is eliminated, the fear
which it inspires will no
longer haunt cool spring
nights.

Wallace aura,
independence,
and Brewer f
By Roy Riley
Alabama is at a crossroads
politically. George Wallace
is no longer governor' or
de ' facto governor. Albert
Brewer is governor, and he
will run this state as he sees
fit: not as George Wallace
would like for him to run it.
Governor Brewer must de­cide
whether
he will con­tinue
to pur­sue
the Wal­lace
philoso-
I phy to which
he so tightly
clung, - or
make a break
from Alaba­ma's
presi­dential
can­didate.
No­thing
is definite; although
Brewer has preached .the
Wallace gospel since the for­mer
governor entered the
political throne room in the
early '60's, he may do so no
longer.
Governor Brewer was Spea­ker
of the House during Mr.
Wallace's administration,; and
he was pro-Wallace then.
Governor Brewer was the
man Wallace picked to push
school, road and industrial
legislation through. Brewer
did just that.
On the side, he has spoken
out vigorously for the Wal­lace
version of state's rights|
constitutional government and
free enterprise. He did so be-|
cause, as he said, he liked
the Wallace programs. He said
he believed in them.
Now Albert Brewer is gov-l
emor, and he has his pwnl
ideas regarding state govern-f
ment. Don't think for a minute
that he will automatically ad J
here to the Wallace philoso-|
phy. Sure, he was a Wallace|
elector in Tuesday's elect-,
ions, and he would have liked!
the Wallace support in the|
1970's elections.
But politics and individua
ideas are strange bedfellows]
Brewer would not be the firsl
man to change his mind wheif
the political scene shifted.
Alabama has made progress]
during the Wallace years, desl
pite what you read in Thej
Montgomery Advertiser, The
Birmingham News and The!
Auburn Plainsman.
There are some obvious
things Brewer will do thai]
may seem anti-Wallace. One
is the separation of state
workers from the Wallace ;pre
sidential campaign machine]
But Wallace may beat Brewej
to the punch and ask his
state workers to resign theij
Capitol positions.
Come September, Brewel
will ask the state legislature
to straighten out the jumbled
ad valorem tax. He will alsq
try to work out a Wallace!
promised pay increase to
teachers, and he will try tq
get enough money in the til
to keep the state's numeroui
junior colleges functioning!
All these are George Wallacl
connected and any harsB
comment from Brewer imply!
ing that Wallace had fallen
down on these issues would
be a slap in the Wallace facej
What happens in 1970?
Don't be too surprised i|
Wallace comes back fo|
another try at governor,
will not be easy becausd
Brewer is a competent mai
and will win a lot of support
during the next two years. H\
could win enpugh to defea
Wallace in 1970.
Would Wallace run for th|
Senate?
Don't count on it. He woull
be a little fish in a big pon!
there, but back home, h|
would be the king fish.
Brewer and Wallace mal
have it out verbally beforl
the 1970 elections. If s<f
Wallace will certainly get
the race.
The Wallace years hav

Letters to the editor
Readers comment on dress referendum, coed discipline
Ballot questioned
in dress referendum
Editor, The Plainsman:
The results of the dress
o rules referendum have made
me truly ashamed of being a
. - woman student at Auburn
. . University. I find it unplea­sant
to be associated with a
group of people who apparent­ly
feel they are incapable of
dressing themselves. I was,
however, delighted to learn
(by calling the AWS office)
; that these rules only affect
' those girls who'live in dormi­tories.
Graduate students who
live off campus and married
or local undergraduates have
- no restrictions on their dress
.other than those imposed by
the community. Still, I find it
very hard to believe that any
group would impose such res­trictions
upon itself. Perhaps
'•'a hard look into the "secret
'ballot" process might be
" justified in this case.

Referendum preserves
image of ladies' ?
Editor, The Plainsman:
.' . Eureka, we can all rejoice!
; The ugly cloud of apathy and
complacency lingering over
the Auburn campus has finally
•been dispersed in one great
—swoop of War Eagle's wing.
' T h e campus now bathes in a
' continuous warmth of mature,
free and totally objective
thinking.
-' Why and how did this mira­cle
occur? Simple. One thou­sand
three hundred and thirty-
' two intelligent and concerned
coeds voted NO in the dress
'rules referendum.
" ' ' It seems that all the no
'votes were cast because the
; v " n o ' s " were so deeply con-
; cerned about the extremes that
'the radical " y e s ' s " might take
' if given almost unlimited free­dom
to dress as they please.
For example, as one sweet
.|.little freshman "no" remarked,
,. " I don't want anybody walkin'
across Samford Park in a bi-
•kini." Well naturally to have
.some exhibitionist stroll
.across Samford in anything as
nefarious as a bikini would
;,be terribly debasing to Au-
.- .burn* s world reknowned image
/•,of being the home of true
"Southern Ladies." So, if all
this doesn't add up to an ex-
- ample of unadulterated altru­ism,
then what does? Perhaps
'we should call a meeting at
Cliff Hare to let Harry M. and
Kitty award all the "no's"
'with the Auburn Medal of
Honor for their mass display
of concern and interest in
' controversial topics.
This is all well and good,
but if some of those con-cerned(??)
" n o ' s " would take
a look at their logic, they
might discover a few para­doxes.
In the first place, most
of the no votes were cast,
not on the basis of each indi­vidual's
feelings about her
own dress mores, but on mis­conceptions
about the dress
mores of other coeds. There­fore,
how in the name of hell's
bells can any "no" justify
forcing her own morals on
others? She can't!! But I doubt
if any " n o " could really com­prehend
this fact; they are all
so sweet, cute and dumb as
hell and spend most of their
time worrying about how this
thing called a Southern lady
is supposed to dress and act.
Certainly each individual
has a right to be concerned
about how others act. If some
coed chose to cross Samford
in the nude, it would be rather
unfortunate, in more ways than
one. But nonetheless, it is
still her right to make that
decision.
For those "no's" who are
worried about some exposing
certain parts of her body in
public, let me add this. I
rather suspect that the grodi-est
Auburn coed, would be
dressed neater by far than
99.99 per cent of the grodes,
farmers and other assorted
rednecks that parade in front
of the Selma-Del Restaurant
in Selma or in any other rinky-dink
Southern town, Birming­ham,
Mobile and Atlanta in­cluded.
However, this is probably
alltonoavail. For the " n o ' s"
are quite complacent to con­tinue
thinking that they have
elevated the status of the
Auburn coed. And no doubt
they have. Since the referen­dum,
Auburn coeds have pro­bably
risen from a rating of
minus infinity to one of minus
900 on Princeton University's
rating of college coeds. What
an outstanding accomplish­ment!
You should certainly be
proud of it.

Petty ruks seen as
rights infringement
Editor, The Plainsman:
Perhaps it is because I
l i v e d independently in an
apartment last quarter that I
feel so acutely the pinch of
the hundreds of rules imposed
on me as an Auburn coed. I
found last quarter that I do
not need rules to tell me, for
instance, to dress appropriate­ly.
Rules assuming that I am
so immature and so lacking in
self-respect that I cannot ap­propriately
dress myself are
insulting and unnecessary.
At the meeting held in Dorm
J to discuss the lifting of the
dress rules, I was shocked to
find so many girls opposed to
this liberalization. They gave
two reasons' for their stand.
One, "Most of us wouldn't
break the rules anyway, so
why not let them remain for
those who would?" And, two,
"We must preserve the high
image of the Auburn coed."
In the first place, I believe
that it is a person's right to
dress according to his tastes
and his concept of appropriate­ness.
I also believe that at least
99% of the Auburn coeds have
enough self-respect that they
can be turned loose in down­town'
Auburn without embar­rassing
anyone with their poor
taste or their immodesty. If
there is a girl in the remain­ing
1% who is not mature
enough to dress appropriately
then she is hurting only her­self,
for if the "image of the
Auburn coed" suffers, it will
be because someone has made
a rather naive generalization.
I think it would be better if
those Auburn coeds who voted
down the dress referendum
would find it less a part of
their concern to worry about
how everyone else dresses,
and a greater part of their
concern to become aware of
themselves as mature young
women upon whom petty rules
are a personal infringement
of rights.

University substitutes
in parental role
Editor, The Plainsman:
After much deliberation I
have discovered the reason a
parent would send his off­spring
to Auburn. It's better
than sending him off to school.
It's a change of command,
from parents who try to edu­cate
us to educators who try
to be parents. "Daddy" Phil-pott
and "Uncle" Foy, not
counting various surgagate
mothers for the girls, run their
big family with an iron hand,
rewarding conformity to im­pure
reason.
At home, should I get a
traffic ticket I am punished
first by the law, then by my
father. Since I am away from
home, at Auburn, the school
takes over my father's job. If
I do something here I will
first be punished by the law
and then by the school. In
fact, even if I am acquitted
by law I can be punished by
the school. Now some lawyers
refer to this as double jeo­pardy,
but I realize that my
"uncle" does this just out of
love for me and that it hurts
him more than me. Me, #70508.
But, "parents" and assort­ed
relations, your children are
growing up. Does it make you
feel old? The ones who can
are going to leave home, not
only students but instructors,
and the others are going to
disinherit themselves and try
to change their "parents" in­to
educators and administra­tors.

discipline from coeds
Editor, The Plainsman:
As a member of the older
generation (over 30) it has
been interesting to observe
the unrest on college cam­puses
recently. I have been
particularly interested in the
critical attitude of some
campus leaders and Plains­man
writers. One writer criti­cized
almost everything on
campus but the male student.
The main theme seems to bo
"Freedom with Responsibil­ity."
One of the big "kicks"
is to free the coed from op­pression.
The claim is that
restrictions hinder the coed's
opportunity to develop as a
responsible citizen. Some say
that complete freedom encour­ages
responsibility.
Let's look to the dictionary
for definitions of both freedom
and responsibility. Freedom:
"Liberation from slavery, im­prisonment
or restraint." Since
the coed is neither enslaved
or imprisoned we would have
to agree that she is restrained.
Responsibility: "Accounta­bility;
also, moral accounta­bility;
as the responsibilities
of parenthood."
Now to the point! Does the
restraint imposed by the
school and family on the Au­burn
coed have a direct rela­tionship
to responsibility?
Let's make a comparison with
the male student and see.
Everyone knows that for many
years the male at Auburn has
had to live with very few
rules. In fact, he has in most
cases had more freedoms than
the girls at home.
Please understand that this
comparison is not to criticize
the male student. It is only to
show that restraint has had
some good effect on coed
responsibility.

A PKoni'C I Ol MlSt COMI'ASY. IS( MIRIHVALf.N I 07M
I recently attended a panel
discussion during the Reli
gious Affairs Conference. The
attendance was about 300 to
50 in favor of the coeds. I
also was present at the open
ing session of Greek Week
when President Noah Lang-dale
of Georgia State Uni­versity
was guest speaker.
The women outnumbered the
men about 400 to 50.
A conservative estimate of
church attendance in Auburn
would be about 3 to 1, coed
over male student. These fi­gures
are very revealing,
particularly when you consider
the ratio of 9,000 males to
less than 4,000 females.
Could it be that the men are
studying more than the women?
I doubt it since the published
figures consistently show
higher grades among coeds.
Well, darn it! How can these
women be so responsible with
all those restrictions? There
must be something that the
men are more responsible for.
That's right, there is. Re­sponsible
for more beer par­ties,
more loafing, more
smoking, more cussin', more
boasting. Oops! Excuse me,
men. I said I wouldn't criti­cize.
I just don't happen to
believe the old saying "that
women are the root of all
evil." Sometimes I think we
are.
O.K., let's stop kidding. It
all boils down to one thing.
It's just not natural for a man
to discipline himself alone.
He needs help from someone
else; God, Mom, Dad, school,
friends, etc. Thank goodness
for them all. And, just maybe,
we could learn a little dis­cipline
from the coed.

UA challenges Auburn
for \ow college' title
Editor, The Plainsman:
Last week the Crimson-
White, student newspaper at
Alabama, carried an editorial
which started:
"We were getting concerned
because Auburn looked like it
might be trying to beat us out
of the title of 'The Progres­sive
University' in this
state."
After a few choice para­graphs
on everything from
President Philpott to NSA it
concluded: v
"We were pretty scared.
Then they had this panty raid
at Auburn a week ago that got
a bunch of their boys thrown
in the Auburn calaboose.
"They thereby reclaimed
their title of 'CowCollege.'"
The main headline of that
sophisticated newspaper of
that ultrarefined institute read:
"A Freshman Suspended For
Chicken Theft." Need I say
more.

Tigers place pride on line vs. 'Dogs, Seminoles
When you're a member of
the Auburn baseball team
and your squad has been
eliminated from the South­eastern
Conference Eastern
Division pennant race but
you have four games left
against Georgia and Florida
State, do you care about
Winning?
You bet you do.
Why?
"If we beat Georgia twice
in two games, and Tennessee
loses to Florida three times,
we can place second in the
Division." said outfielder Ty
Coppinger after the Tigers
finished practice Monday
afternoon. "And we'd like
nothing better than to beat
the number one team in the
nation, FSU."
THE TIGERS WERE
bumped out of the SEC race
last weekend. They went into
a two-game series with Geor­gia
at Athens with a slim
chance of staying in the pen­nant
fight, but a 4-3 loss to
the Bulldogs on Saturday com­bined
with weekend wins by
Division leader Florida and
second place Tennessee
wiped them out.

Vic: short for victor
The Auburn track team's 2-2 dual meet record this sea­son
came as a disappointment to many Tiger track fans,
but there were some outstanding performances by some
outstanding athletes.
When asked to choose the most valuable member of
his squad this year, Coach Mel Rosen pulled his white
Auburn baseball cap down over his nose, shutting out
Monday afternoon's dying sunlight, and thought for a
moment.
"Well, Alvin Bresler has been great for us as a fresh­man,"
said Rosen, "but the guy I'd pick as the most
valuable man would be Vic Kelley, our senior distance
man.
"Vic has won consistently for us in the mile and has
, helped us out in the three mile when we've needed extra
points. And Vic has come out here this year and run to
win and hasn't worried much about his times. He's just
interested in winning for us."
This ties in with Rosen's theories about running track.
•T'he genial coach doesn't put much stock in times and
breaking records. To him, winning comes first. Good
times naturally follow winning efforts.
So it has been with Vic Kelley in 1968. Vic set the
Ilill-time Auburn record in the mile on April 20 in a five
way meet in Tallahassee, Fla. Vic won the event in a
time of 4:11.9, the fourth best effort in the Southeastern
Conference this year.
Kelley won two victories in last Saturday's meet
against Georgia Tech, placing first in the mile and half
mile.
Chances arc
Chances are that Vic will place in the SEC meet in
Tuscaloosa on May 17-18 in at least one event. This
would be a fitting end to a fine career which includes
an all-time school record in the two mile and all-time
freshman records in the mile and two mile.
Another trackman who came in for high praise from
Rosen was shot putter-discus thrower Barry Erwin, a
6-7, 260-pound junior.
"Barry is now second only to Richard Crane in the
Auburn weight event records," said Rosen, "and he's
been a consistent winner for us all year."
Erwin stands second in the SEC in the shot with a
54-614 toss, and fifth in the Conference discus event
with a 163-8 heave.
And there have been other fine showings by people
like Joe Bush, Robert Maxwell, Jack Marsh, Mickey
Jones, John Kipp, Pete Ginter, and Werner Beirsdoerfer.
So why the so-so season?
"True, we've had some great performances, but we
haven't been able to put them all together on one week­end,"
said Rosen. "We haven't jelled as a team. We
haven't had consistency.
"Really, though, we came close to winning all four
of our dual meets this year. A few breaks here and there,
and, well, it's too late for that now."
The reasons for this inconsistency are hard to pin
down.
It's nothing you can put your finger on," said Rosen,
"and that's the trouble. It's something that just happens.
"One thing that I know has hurt us is the size of the
team. We have only 40 boys out this year, whereas we
'usually have about 70. People think a small squad is
better, that you can give each boy more coaching. But
it doesn't work that way. With a larger team, the boys
will help themselves and there's more competition and
more depth.
EBgbiSty rvk hurt
"I believe we had a small team this year because of
the freshman eligibility rule. A lot of boys didn't come
out because they didn't feel they could compete against
varsity boys. We're hoping this situation changes next
year.
"Our morale has been pretty good and hasn't been a
problem. The two teams that beat us, Florida State and
Alabama, were both up for us, but we were up for them,
too.
"FSU was probably up for us a little more than we were
for them, however. They think the greatest thing in the
world is beating an SEC team. We like to beat FSU, but
we'd rather beat Conference teams, too.
"I've never seen two teams as keyed up for a meet as
Auburn and Alabama two Saturdays ago. There again, we
barely were beaten."
The meet was decided in the closing event, the mile
relay, with Alabama winning, thanks to a great effort by
anchor man David Adkins, the Crimson Tide's ace hurdler-sprinter.
Plainsman Part at 3:30 p.m.
Friday and at 10:15 a.m. Sat­urday.
Georgia is currently in
fourth place in the Division,
but two wins over Auburn
would put them 8-6 and Auburn
at 7-8 and give the Bulldogs
third place.
THE BULLDOGS ARE LED
by hot hitting centerfielder
Jim Simpson and fehird base­man
Donnie Clark.
Georgia has two fine pit­chers
in Buddy Copeland, a
junior righthander who beat
the Tigers Saturday and ran
his record to 4-1,and senior
righty Doug Tucker.
FSU, the number one team
in the country, comes to Au­burn
for games on Monday and
Tuesday.
FSU is one of the nation's
winningest ball clubs. Their
season's record is 24-2, and
the Seminoles had a 21 game
winning streak broken Tues­day
afternoon. The Florida
Gators stopped FSU, 3-2, in
Gainesville.
FSU HANDED AUBURN
two losses on April 22-23 in
Tallahassee, Fla.
Pitching has been the key
to the Seminole's success
this year, according to Bob
Sanchez, a Tallahassee Demo­crat
sports writer who regular­ly
covers FSU games.
"Florida State starts off
each year playing teams from
up North who come down here
and live on campus," said
Sanchez. "They regard this
as their spring training and
save their best playing for
their district games. So FSU
usually wins most of their
opening games and builds up
an impressive record early in
the year. Then they get into
their tough competition at the
end of the year and something
usually goes wrong.
"This year, however, the
team has held up, and a large
part of this is due to the fine
pitching of Steve Mastin, Jeff
Hill, Mike Reibling and Lin
Garrett."
MASTIN IS THE ACE OF
the staff with an 8-1 slate.
"The Seminoles have also
been scoring a lot of runs,
about eight a game," said
Sanchez.
FSU has scored 10 or more
runs in seven of their games
this year, bombing the Val-dosta
Red Sox, an amateur
team, 23-3, in one contest.
Most of the hitting has been
done by first baseman Mike
Easom, shortstop Jeff Hogan,
catcher Tom Cook and second
baseman Dick Gold, Easom
has been over the .400 mark
for much of the season, and
Cook is the Seminole's big
power hitter with eight home
runs.
"THE FANS ARE REALLY
loyal down here," said San-choz.
"FSU has been averag­ing
crowds from 2,000 to 3,000
people at night games. And
two Saturdays ago they had
as many people at the Loyala
game as attended the Garnet
and Gold game, the local
spring football game."
Auburn defeated Georgia,
8-2, last Firday. Johnny Strai-ton
led the way with a grand
slam home run in the top of
the ninth inning. It was Strai-ton's
fifth round tripper of the
year, tying him for the SEC
lead with catcher Bobby
Wade of Mississippi.
Earl Nance picked up the
victory, his fifth against two
losses.
THE TIGERS LOST SAT-urday,
4-3, despite outfielder
Dennis Womack's two rbi and
first home run of the year and
senior second baseman Greg
Golden's first home run of his
Auburn career.
Florida defeated Kentucky
twice over the weekend, thus
mathematically eliminating
Auburn from the pennant race.
The Gators meet the Volun­teers
three times this week­end.
The Vols need three wins
to capture the Eastern Divi­sion.
Should they lose three
times and should Auburn
sweep their two-game series
with Georgia, the Tigers would
wind up in second place.

Auburn netters compete
in SEC meet in Lexington
By REED EDWARDS
After defeating the Uni­versity
of South Alabama in
Auburn last Thursday, the
Auburn netters left Wednes­day
for Lexington, Ky.,
where they will meet Ole
Miss in a duel match and
then play in the Southeast­ern
Tournament, May 9-11.
"We didn't play as well
as usual against South Ala­bama,"
Coach Young spoke
of the match last Thursday.
"It's hard to get 'up* and
play well against a team after
you beat them so badly two
days earlier on their own
courts."
AUBURN DEFEATED
South Alabama last Tuesday,
7-2.
In the SEC tournament
Coach Young expects the most
out of his fourth and fifth
singles, Jerry Maples and
Craig Ledbetter.
' These boys have been
playing mighty well the last
two or three matches," said
Young. "Also the opposition
in fourth and fifth singles
won't be as strong. They are
our best bet for a good show­ing."
Auburn's first and second
singles, Steve Davis and
Norman Waldrop, both boast
the best records of the sea­son,
11-4.
Davis and Bill Hopton-
Jones, who has a 12-3 record,
will play number one doubles
in the tournament.
"Davis and Waldrop are
our best players and they
could do pretty fair in the
tournament, but they'll have
some mighty tough opposi­tion,"
said Young.
THEY TOO WILL HAVE
some tough opposition in the
number one doubles spot,"
said Coach Young. "But if
both of them have a good day
at the same time, they'll be

Ten SEC teams will
participate in the tournament.

Every time distance man
Werner Beiersdoefer runs
the three mile event and
wins, he sets a record. The
three mile is a new event
in the NCAA this year and
the winner of the event
automatically sets a new
meet mark.
Beiersdoefer set his latest

Saturday. Auburn defeated

AUBURN WILL TRAVEL
to Tuscaloosa May 17-18 for
the Southeastern Conference
championship meet.
Saturday was a day for re­cords
to be broken. The Tigers
accumulated four dual meet
records and Yellow Jackets
one.
Winning two events each in
the meet for Auburn were Vic
Kelley, Alvin Bresler, Jack
Marsh and Barry Erwin.
Beiersdoefer has been win­ning
the three mile consis­tently
this year, taking first
place in three meets and
placing second in two others.
He has the third fastest
three mile time in the SEC.
His time against Tech was a
fast 14:36.30.
JOE BUSH IN THE 440
with :47.5 and Bresler in the
440-yard intermediate hurdles
with :54.0 also set dual meet
records.
Robert Maxwell, John Kipp,
Peter Ginter and Bush, Au­burn's
mile relay foursome,
won the mile-relay en route
to setting a new stadium re­cord,
:41.0.
"The turning point of the
meet came when we swept the
half-mile," track coach Mel
Rosen said. "I believe the
most pleasing performance of
the day was the return of the
mile-relay team to their usual;
form."
Rosen was pleased with^
the team because they had,;
as he said, "bounced back
after a rough meet with Ala­bama."
AUBURN LOST A CLOSE
meet to the Crimson Tide
the weekend before.
Kelly won the 880-yard
run and the mile, while Bres­ler
won the 120-yard high hur­dles.
Also winning two events
each was Marsh in the long

BLOCKING, TACKLING WAS HARD AND HEAVY IN SATURDAY SCRIMMAGE
Tigers gave preview of March 18 A-Day Game
'That James boy' steals again
to highlight game scrimmage
Auburn University defen­sive
end Bill James turned
back the pages of history
for a brief moment last
Saturday afternoon in a
game scrimmage in Cliff
Hare Stadium.
James, who claims to be
fifth cousin of Western outlaw
Jesse James, robbed Auburn's
first team offense of two
scoring opportunities, as h is
team, composed of the number
one defensive and number two
offensive teams, won the
scrimmage, 13-0.
JAMES STOLE A TOMMY
Traylor pass deep in goal line
territory and returned it 45
yards before his blockers out­ran
him and he was tackled.
Bill earlier recovered a goal
line fumble to kill another
probable score.
With veteran quarterback
Loran Carter unable to pract­ice
due to bruised ribs and
junior signal caller Dwight
Brisendine out with a hip
pointer, Auburn's freshman
quarterbacks took charge of
the scrimmage with Tommy
Traylor running the first team
and Rick Eisenacher directing
the second squad.
Also at work was Mike
Kelley, who recorded the
longest run of the day, a
gallop of 69 yards.
EISENACHER HIT ON NINE
of 13 passes in leading his
team to the win.
"There are only two short
weeks left this spring and
we've got a lot to do," said
Head Coach Ralph Jordan a t
the end of the Saturday work­out.
Jordan did have praise for
several players, foremost
among them sophomore line­backer
Mike Kolen, who has
been the hardest tackling
player of the spring. Jordan
ranks him with the Tigers'
best in the linebacking de­partment,
and this includes
former greats Jackie Burkett
and Bill Cody.
FRESHMAN WINGBACK
Alvin Bresler answered any
questions about his effective­ness
as a receiver Saturday
by making several circus
catches and closing the day
with seven receptions for 145
yards. All this came after
winning the high and inter­mediate
hurdle events earlier
in the afternoon in a track
meet against Georgia Tech.

Lambda Chi's swipe Sigma Chi's *derby'
" Well intramural fans,
here it is another Friday
and another Plainsman and
another chance for you to
read some great intramural
predictions.
But this week I'm going
to give all those teams that
would have lost after I picked
them to win a break. I'm not
going to make any predictions
this week-just write some
straight news.
AFTER LAST WEEK'S
games, the Lambda Chi's, Phi
Tau's and OTS's deserve
headline coverage.
The Lambda Chi's added a
derby to their collection of
victory trophies when they
squeezed by the Sigma Chi's
8-7. The score was tied, 7-7,
at the end of seven innings,
but Shorty Piel and Tim Sum­mers
were able to "maintain
their cools" as they got the
side out after the Sigma Chi
Derby boys had loaded the
bases.
THE PHI TAU'S WON TWO
games last week to give them
the only clean slate in League

'LONG' BALL HITTER
Scotty Long, Auburn's
1967 shortstop, is the Tigers
all-time great power hitter.
Long bashed 11 home runs
last year and drove in 45
runs,
By ROY RILEY
Assistant Managing Editor
Ron Whaley had never high jumped more than 6-14 his
entire Auburn track career. In fact, his only claim to
fame was when he tied for first place with an anemic
leap of 5-10 in a dual meet with Georgia Tech.
Add to that, a case of chicken pox, and Whaley looked
like anything but the p o t e n t i a l hero. He had lost 10
pounds while recovering from his ills and had done little
more than get the wobble out of his legs by the time the
Great Tiger Tales
Southeastern Conference Track meet rolled around in
Cliff Hare Stadium on sunny day in May, 1961.
But it was "Wilbur Hutsell Day" and thousands of
alumni, University officials, and well-wishers were on
hand to honor Auburn's track coach of 40 years.
It was a great moment in Auburn sports.
LSU was the favorite and with multi-talented Doug
Constant wearing the Bengal colors, who could dispute
the LSU pre-meet selection.
But it was "Wilbur Hutsell D a y " . . ..
Whaley, a non-scholarship sophomore had managed to
get through the qualifying round and on the last day Au­burn
had 14 men left and LSU had 12.
The afternoon was long and hot, but Constant had col­lected
17 points for his team, only one shy of the SEC
record.
With only the high jump left on the Agenda, Auburn
led LSU, 54Vi-53tt.
Constant had cleared the 6-4 mark, as had Tech's Bill
Ransom, Kentucky's Tom Hutchinson, and Tennessee's
Howie Moss. Auburn's last hope rested with Whaley.
Whaley had to stay in the event or all was lost.
And it was "Wilbur Hutsell Day"
Whaley drew a breath and lunged. His size 14 shoes
slipped over the bar and the crowd roar told Lee County
that Auburn was still in it.
The bar went to 6-5. Again Constant, Hutchinson and
Moss cleared the mark. Ransom failed and it was up to
Whaley.
He missed on his first two tries and he readied for his
third and final try. Again he leaped.
The bar fell. The crowd moaned. Auburn was out of it.
But wait. Only three jumpers were left and points were
given for four places. Whaley had earned the Tigers a
fourth place tie and VA points. If only Moss or Hutchin­son
could beat Constant, Auburn would win it by a point.
TO THE SHOWERS
Whaley never knew it. He had long departed to the
showers, sickened at his inability to "cross the bar."
Hutchinson went out quickly.
Never before in the annals of athletics have Auburn
fans cheered for a Tennessee athlete as hard as they did

then. But there was little hope. Moss had never been
much higher than 6-5 and Tennessee had zero points for
the day.
Up to 6-7 went the bar. The fans had flooded the high
jump area despite pleas from officials to stay away.
Moss missed thrice and all Constant had to do was
clear the 6-7 mark and the Bengals had it wrapped up.
His first two tries failed. Talk about pressure.
He had to win the event or tie for first. A tie earned
him only VA points. That would give LSU only 55 points
and that wouldn't beat Auburn's 56.
'WHAT'S HIS NAME'
"If only that wnatever his name was hadn't made it
to 6-4" must have been his thoughts.
He adjusted his glasses and leaped.
The bar came crashing down with the sweetest sound
those frenzied fans had ever heard and Auburn had won
itself an SEC track title.
And it was "Wilbur Hutsell Day" to b o o t . . ..
Far into the locker room was Whaley, but his fans were
soon to greet him with the news.
Sports writers were busily getting their stories written
while Sam Adams, sports editor of the Alabama Journal,
and Fred Ball, now University personnel manager, were
presenting Hutsell with a new Oldsmobile.
An athlete wearing crimson and white colors stood by
the gate and when the bar hit the ground he made his
.farewell with an angry "damn" and headed toward Tus­caloosa.
They cheered far into the night, and rightly so.
. After all, it was "Wilbur Hutsell Day."

FROM THE HALLS OF PROTOZOA
This column, normally a treasure house of twinkly quips
and slapdash japery, has now been appearing in your
campus newspaper for fourteen years, and if I have
learned one thing in these fourteen long years, it is not to
try to be funny in the last column of the semester. With
final exams looming obscenely close, you don't want jokes;
you want help.
So today, foregoing levity, I give you a quick cram
course in the subject you are all flunking. I refer, of
course, to biology.
Biology is divided into several phylla, or classes. First
is the protozoa, or one-celled animal. Protozoa can be
taught simple things like bringing in the newspaper, but
when shopping for pets it is best to look for animals with
at least two cells, or even four if your yard has a fence
around it.
Another popular class of animals is the periphera—a
shadowy category that borders often on the vegetable.
Take, for example, the sponge. The sponge is definitely an
animal. The wash-cloth, on the other hand, is definitely not.
Next we come to the arthropoda, or insects. Most people
find insects unattractive, but actually there is exquisite
beauty in the insect world if you trouble to look. Take, for
instance, the lovely insect poems of William Cullen
Sigafoos— Tumbling Along with the Tumbling Tumblebug
and Fly Gently, Sweet Aphid and Gnats My Mother
Caught Me. Mr. Sigafoos, alas, has been inactive since the
invention of DDT.
Our next category is the mollusca—lobsters, shrimp, and
the like. Lobsters are generally found under rocky projec­tions
on the ocean bottom. Shrimps are generally found in
a circle around a small bowl containing cocktail sauce.
Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades are generally
found at any counter where Personna Super Stainless
Steel Blades are sold.
I mention Personna Blades because the makers of Per­sonna
Blades pay me to write this column, and they are
inclined to get edgy if I neglect to mention their product.
Some get double edgy and some single, for Personna
Blades come both in double edge style and Injector style.
Mind you, it is no burden for me to mention Personna,
for it is a blade that shaves quickly and cleanly, slickly and
keenly, scratchlessly and matchlessly. It is a distinct pleas­ure
to shave with Personna Blades and to write about
them but sometimes, I confess, I find it difficult to work
the commercial into a column. Some years ago, for ex­ample,
I had the devil's own time working a Personna plug
into a column about Alexander the Great. The way I finally
managed it was to have Alexander say to the Oracle at
Delphi, "Oracle, I have tasted all the world's pleasures,
yet I am not content. Somehow I know there is a joy I have
missed." To which the Oracle replied, "Yes, Alexander^
there is such a joy—namely Personna Blades—but, alas for
you, they will not be invented for another 2500 years."
Whereupon Alexander fell into such a fit of weeping that
Zeus finally took pity and turned him into a hydrant.
Well sir, there is no question I sold a lot of Personnas with
this ingenious commercial, but the gang down at the
American Academy of Arts and Letters gave me a mighty
good razzing, you may be sure.
But I digress. Back to biology and the most advanced
phyllum of all—the chordata, or vertebrates. There are.
two kinds of vertebrates: those with vertical backbones
and those with horizontal. Generally it is easy to tell them
apart. A fish, for instance, has a horizontal backbone, and
a man has a vertical backbone. But what if you run into.
a fish that swims upright or a man who never gets out of
the sack? How do you tell them apart? Science struggled
with this sticky question for years before Sigafoos of
M.I.T came up with his brilliant solution: offer the crea­ture
a pack of Personna Blades. If it is a fish, it will refuse.
If it is homo sapiens, it will accept—and the more sapient,
the quicker.
And now you know biology. And now, for the fourteenth
time, aloha.
* * * © 1%«. Mix Shulmu
The makers of Personna, The Electro-Coated blade,
have enjoyed bringing you another year of Old Max.
From us too, aloha.

Maddox y disgusted'
by coed ruledemands
By John Reynolds
"I cannot imagine college girls saying they want the
right to drink liquor and carouse and raise the devil,"
lamented Georgia Gov. Lester Maddox during a news con­ference
at Bob Jones University in Greenville, S.C.
Governor Maddox is "sickened and disgusted" with
Recently, University of Georgia coeds,
(demanding the same rights as male stu-
I dents, organized a campus march and
[staged a sit-in in an academic building.
[ In trouncing on the topic of college dis­turbances
he said, in respect to coeds'
: civil rights movement, "Their motives
*|^^ should be higher. They should want the
m, ^Bright to clean up these places."
CONCISE OPINION OF KENNEDY
Sen. Robert F. Kennedy did not make Maddox's "best
liked" list. The governor's opinion of Kennedy was a
concise: "He stinks."
George Wallace, however, has that something which
other presidential hopefuls lack, according to Maddox.
"I will never oppose Wallace," he said. "I hope some­one
with his thinking can get into the White House."
COMPULSORY HAIRCUTS REPEALED
Question: "Should I have my ears lowered this week?"
Now University of Mississippi freshman men can supply
their own answer to this quandary without regard to
"Mother University's" judgement as to a "good" hair
length. A rule requiring freshmen to have regular hair
trimmings or suffer the consequences has been repealed
by the Campus Senate.
Proponents for a departure from the student code allow­ing
the University to send boys to the barber shop ex­plained
that "many freshmen do not and will not have
their hair cut, and there is no feasible way to enforce
the existing laws. There is no standard for what con­stitutes
a freshman haircut."
RACIAL INEQUITIES AT MIGHIGAN STATE?
A list of seven grievances compiled by Michigan State
University's 38 negro athletes, stated that if the Univer­sity
does not correct alleged racial inequities they will
boycott all spring sports events.
They complained that there are no Negro cheerleaders
at Michigan State, and this is "questionable in view of
the large number of talented Negro girls on campus."
Another demand was that more Negro coaches be re­cruited
in all sports. A Negro assistant football coach
was recently employed by Michigan State, but the ath­letes
are not pacified.
"It is deplorable and no longer acceptable," they
said, "that black people are not employed in athletic
facilities in nonprofessional capacities. Black athletic
trainers and a black physician should be hired," their
list continued.
The Negroes would like to see a black athletic coun­selor
on campus to help remedy the disproportionate
number of Negroes who fail academically. They insist
that Negro athletes are placed "in courses that will
maintain their athletic eligibility but not enable them to
graduate at the end of the four year period."
Football coach Duffy Daugherty sympathized with the
Negroes. He said, however,that Michigan State nowoffers
Negroes 50 athletic scholarships; this is more than any
other university in the nation. "But I would say that they
will lose their athletic scholarships if they don't play,"
he asserted.

Politics has been called everything from a "dirty
business" to a "noble venture," but when all is said
and done, working with a political campaign can be one
of the most enlightening experiences of your life.
At 6 o'clock last Wednesday evening seven Auburn
students piled into cars and headed for Evansville, Ind.,
to campaign for Sen. Eugene McCarthy in the Indiana
primary. Five hundred miles and frequent stops for gas,
food and all stretched the trip to 12 long hours.
The sun was creeping over the horizon as the weary
little caravan rolled across the muddy Ohio River and into
Evansville. A brief stop for directions and the "Alaba-mians
for McCarthy" headed for campaign headquarters,
two floors above a rundown store near the river.
Up the dirty steps, across the worn purple carpet and
into spacious rooms littered with campaign literature,
cigarette butts and folders for canvassing voters. The
local campaign director roused himself from a mattress
on the floor, rubbed the sleep from his eyes and greeted
the newcomers.
After learning that Senator McCarthy would speak at
the Universitv of Evansville that morning, the group was
assigned housing in the homes of some political-minded
- Hoosiers. There was little time to head out to the homes,
stow the gear, get cleaned up after the trip and return to
town for breakfast.
Then on to the campus of the University, a sleepy
school in a quiet corner of Evansville. The students
strolling along the tree-shaded paths were the same as
students anywhere.
Suddenly a cavalcade rolled onto the campus, and the
McCarthy contingent climbed out of the cars. The Senator
himself stepped out and greeted the group of supporters
crowded around his auto.
A tall, distinguished-looking man with silver-gray
hair, McCarthy exudes a feeling of competent confidence.
His piercing eyes and warm smile reach out and grab you.
He takes time for a firm, friendly handshake and a few
words with each supporter.
A crowd of about 1,500 students, faculty and inter*-
ested townspeople gathered around the 52-year-old Min­nesota
Democrat as he moved to the podium in the park
to speak. After a brief introduction by the president of
the University, McCarthy's resonant tones began to flow
through the audience.
Cameras clicked as the Senator spoke on the situation
in America, the draft, Vietnam, the Presidency and other
matters of interest to voters. No dry rhetoric,this, Mc­Carthy's
talk was delivered freely and informally with­out
notes. He sprinkled his speech liberally with a so­phisticated
humor and comments about his opponents in
the primary-New York Sen. Robert Kennedy and Gov.
Roger Branigin of Indiana. Branigin first put his name
on the ballot as a standin for President Johnson and
later decided to run as a "favorite son" candidate.
While McCarthy was speaking, a fire engine drove by
three times with its siren wailing, evoking a comment
from the Senator about the "publicity Governor Branigin
was giving him."
The crowd granted McCarthy a long and enthusiastic
round of applause after his address. As he headed back
to his car, exchanging comments and handshakes with
well-wishers, McCarthy told the students to go back to
class and keep his name in mind.
The Auburnites returned to their sleeping places for
a couple of hours of much-needed rack time. Then it was
back to McCarthy Headquarters for an afternoon of work.
Three of the "Alabamians for McCarthy" went on to
Terre Haute to work with the campaign there while the
others remained in Evansville.
Then the work of campaigning began. But what is
campaigning?
It is hours spent typing out lists of potential sup­porters
and voters to be contacted.
It is sorting and counting packets of campaign litera­ture
to be distributed.
It is arguing at length with an uncooperative bus line
official in an attempt to get schedule and route infor­mation
for use by canvassers.
It is pounding the pavement, knocking on doors and
talking with voters.
It is tallying canvass sheets and arranging names of
voters interviewed as to', "for',' "against" and "unde­cided."
It is sitting in the hospitality center speaking to people
interested in the campaign and giving them literature-while
you are "trying to study" for the classes you are
missing.
Campaigning is all this and more. It is being involved
with the political world in a small way. .
It is discussing school, life and politics with students
from all over the Eastern U.S.
And campaigning is a feeling of belonging, a feeling
that you are doing your part to help your country in a
way you believe is right.
